Three Reasons Why Your Prayers Don’t Work

Ever think your prayers don’t ‘work’? If so, you’re not alone. It’s going to be a fantastic weekend at Connexus as we tackle that question. Both our current series (Save & Delete and our new series Hello??) are about prayer. As we wrap up Save & Delete in Orillia, we’ll finish up our look at David’s cry for help in Psalm 101 and see in incredible terms the best things to save and the best things to delete in your life.

In Barrie we kick off a brand new series called Hello??. In it, we’ll outline three reasons you don’t hear from God when you pray. Going to be a great series and one you should invite your friends to.

Finally, DON’T BE LATE! Mom’s, we have something a little fun and hopefully therapeutic for you five minutes before the service starts. So be in your seats early! It will be fun!

In fact, they need to be saved. Even backed up to be kept forever. We’ll look at the kinds of things–and the kinds of people–you want to always have close to you.
